The grade points are converted into grade point average on the basis of established rules. F grade indicates failure.

A student will get individual Grade Point or Letter Grade for every completed course. Usually upon completion of each semester, a Grade Point Average (GPA) is calculated by using the following method.

GPA=Grade Point earned x Credit of the courses passed/Credit of all courses attended

The Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) will be calculated by the same formula where the only difference is that while calculating the GPA of a semester, the credit and GP of only the courses of that particular semester is considered, in calculating the CGPA, the Grade Point and Credit of all courses completed shall be considered.
